Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Low salary. Terrible management. No career progression. Basically squeezed you dry with long working hours with 0 benefits or even care from your team. Just don't join this company. They are getting worse and when their financial hit rock bottom they finally realized their ego is larger than their actual revenue. Now theyre seeling off to private equity xD let's see how it ends
